I've been following this tuturial:
http://www.gimptalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8606
and have followed it to the letter (to the best of my
understanding).
I have mingw, msys installed and working, unzip, wget, activeperl
all installed, and the gimp source code.
Where it's falling down is running the "sh gimp-dep.sh" part.
It's trying to download glib packages but failing with "Invalid
****T" when the script is running wget.
Assume it was a firewall passive thing. Tried setting
FTP_PASSIVE=1 variable and re-trying but same error.
Any ideas?
Side note - the script is hard coded to download glib-2.12.1 etc.
I looked at the ftp site independantly and note the latest is
2.16.3. Should I hack the script for latest of everything?
Side note 2 - this tutorial was written some time ago for Gimp
2.3x. Still relevant for 2.5?
